Well, isn't the issue here that it's not a shared file set in case you
explicitly don't want to share it? ISTM that the proper way to address
this would be to split out a FileSet from SharedFileSet that's then used
for worker.c and sharedfileset.c. Rather than making sharedfileset.c
support a non-shared mode.
